His most recent book, "A Vision for Design," published by Rizzoli, features text by Mr. Netto and contributions by Martha Stewart.

Tickets start at $250 and can be purchased on the historical society's website, by emailing [email protected], or by calling 631-324-6850 ext. 1.

Self Provisions, a storefront attached to Cavaniola’s Gourmet Cheese in Sag Harbor, is “always open,” as is proclaimed by an illuminated sign on the wall at the entrance. Two large, brightly lit vending machines dominate the space, with offerings ranging from sea salt crackers and slabs of French butter to jars of caviar and curated gift boxes — and, of course, cheese.
